@Tezza I mainly used Coreldraw for page layouts, photo editing and very little actual drawing. My daughter has used youtube videos to teach herself how to draw. I think she started watching them when she was eight. She is now 17 years old. She still rather draw on paper and not her 2n1 active-pen capable laptop. I'm still amazed how much she learned by watching those videos. She would watch them for hours pausing them and slowly learning the techniques.
I had a customer in store that whated information and I told him it would take me to long to explain how to do it and I know there are 2 excellent youtube videos online. I pulled them up and he went home and watched them. Came back and then we were able to have an informed chat on which way to proceed with what he wanted to do. Sometimes I get insults telling me I don't want to help them. I do but it is like a student learning chords when they can't even find middle C on the piano.
